Page Eight Heppner Gazette Times, Heppner, Oregon Thursday, March 30, 1939 Flag Code Contest Set by Auxiliary By LUCY E. RODGERS Americanism is understanding America's past and taking an active interest in America's future. The true American citizen believes in liberty, equality, justice and human ity. He believes that liberty does not mean to do what you like but that liberty carries with it a sense of duty. The true American is broad minded and humane. He respects women and the home and believes in freedom of religion, free speech, free press as a foundation of the land. The true American has self respect. He supports his family and conducts himself as a freeman should. He strives to own a home. He is alert and enterprising. No work is too hard for him during working hours, no play too good for him when he is free. The true American is patriotic. He respects and honors his Flag. Each year the American Legion Auxiliary sponsors an Americanism program. In Heppner it has been the custom for thirteen years to carry on an Americanism project in the eighth grade. The girls are asked to write an essay upon some phase of Americanism and the boys to make a detailed study of the Flag Code. Both boys and girls are rated by their teachers on the qualities of scholarship, honor, service, courage, and leadership. Each of these qual ities count 16 2-3 points on a score of 100. The essay counts 16 2-3 points for the girls and the written an swers to question on the Flag Code count 16 2-3 points for the boys. The title for the essays this year is "What It Means to Me to Live in America." I know a land so fair and broad Where men are free to think and toil; Where honest zeal wins just reward, And all may own and till the soil. No other land so broad and free, The land I love, America. Oh, in that land my home shall be Where'er my birthplace may have been; To 1-h.ee I pledge my fealty, None else shall my allegiance win. Oh, I would give my life for thee, Dear land I love, America. Mary K. Buck. BOY SCOUT NEWS By ROBERT GROKETT The Boy Scouts have been meet ing at the lunch room at the school, Now they are meeting at the fair pavilion. No advancements were made last Tuesday. They had open ing ceremony, then played some games, and closed the meeting. Saturday at noon the Scouts went on a hike to Glutton falls. Don Bal lard, a CCC boy, took some pictures of the falls and of the boys. Then they came back to the cars (after about a five-mile walk) and ate the lunch they had, which wasn't very much. They then came home. Later in the summer they have planned a Scout camp at Wallowa lake and are hoping all the boys can go. All boys, whether Scouts or not, are urged to come to the next Scout meeting at the fair pavilion at 7:00 p. m. Tuesday.
